00:00Conflict is an inevitable part of any relationship, but how you handle it can determine the health and longevity of your partnership.
00:08Applying Stoic principles can help you navigate conflicts with calmness, clarity, and compassion.
00:16Stoicism teaches us to focus on what we can control, our reactions and attitudes, while accepting what we cannot change.
00:25When conflict arises, take a step back and assess the situation objectively.
00:31Avoid reacting impulsively or letting your emotions take control.
00:36Instead, approach the conflict with a calm and rational mindset.
00:40Ask yourself, what is the root cause of this conflict?
00:44Is it a result of miscommunication, unmet expectations, or deeper issues?
00:49By understanding the underlying causes, you can address the problem more effectively.
00:54Communicate openly and honestly with your partner.
00:57Express your feelings and concerns without blaming or accusing.
01:01Use I-statements to take ownership of your emotions and avoid escalating the conflict.
01:07For example, instead of saying, you never listen to me, try, I feel unheard when our conversations are interrupted.
01:16This approach fosters empathy and understanding, rather than defensiveness.
